Public bug reported: When mcollective is already installed in the system it may happen that it starts before cloud-init starts to reconfigure it. This leads to a situation when cloud-init changes mcollective config and invokes "service mcollective start" which does nothing because the service is already started - ending up mcollective running with a default configuration.
The fix could be to invoke "service mcollective restart" instead. ** Affects: cloud-init Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
